Iracema

1.107,00€

“This piece was created at my studio home in AkahtiLândia, Southeastern Brazil, and is part of of the series called: Jurema [ from a total of 5 pieces ]. As with other sculptures, in the Jurema series, this work was inspired by the neo-tropical forest where it was made, influenced by both the plant life and the metallic hues of many of the local insects.
On this piece, I added an artificial squid as a reference to illustrate that although created in and inspired by the Atlantic Forest, it’s still in close proximity to the ocean and a very active fishing community.”
